  2. I'm not the author of the post itself, but the 74181 chip seems to be defined in the simulator: https://github.com/hneemann/Digital/blob/master/src/main/dig...

  4. Theres the open source Digital ( https://github.com/hneemann/Digital ) which can run simulations but then export Verilog. If you have an ICE40 based GPU then in theory you can then use open source tools (like apio) to get that onto your…

  5. …but got a Java run time error. Used the recommended JRT https://adoptium.net/ Wandered through the https://github.com/hneemann/Digital site and saw past issues with JRT but no obvious solution. I have a couple hundred GALs of same or…

  8. …just missing something or if that kinda of IDE doesn't exist in any open source tools just yet. [0] https://github.com/hneemann/Digital Edit- and yes I get that I'm probably just not used to the management of Verilog codebases and it's no…

  9. …still seem to use it however (development ended in 2014). Perhaps its descendant is Digital? https://github.com/hneemann/Digital

  10. I have been building a CPU using: https://github.com/hneemann/Digital Much faster than Logisim, UI a little clunky, but my CPU runs around 0.5Mhz and it has very nice peripherals like Telnet, graphics ram, VGA etc Terrible name that is…

  11. This is a game. Should you want a digital logic simulator that's not a game, check out https://github.com/hneemann/Digital .
    comment by tempodox · 2023-01-01 · in Digital Logic Sim
  12. Well logisim is dead, but evolution is a fork and then there's Digital https://github.com/hneemann/Digital which is I think a reimplementation of Logism's concepts? I also hand designed a custom 16 bit CPU in logisim, because I was…

  13. This one is written in Java: https://github.com/hneemann/Digital You can export your project as a Verilog file that can be used in the various FPGA tools.
    comment by jecel · 2022-02-09 · in I decided to build a nine-bit computer
  14. …Logisim to export the schematic to a HDL of some sort to get close. No need, Digital ( https://github.com/hneemann/Digital ) already does this: > A circuit can be exported to VHDL or Verilog. There is also direct support for the BASYS3…

  16. I like Helmut Neemann's Digital : https://github.com/hneemann/Digital It simulates logic, supports automated testing, simulates and analyses combinatorial and sequential logic, comes with a large library of components (generic stuff,…
